• The Professor : I can't understand, Madam, one of my best songbirds. It sang all day before you purchased it. Perhaps in a few days it will settle down.

  Mrs. Jones - Cook : Nothing will make it settle down. I've tried all ways, whistling to it, clapping me hands, frying bacon, no use. It just sits there and makes me look silly.

  The Professor : Not the bird's fault, I assure you, Madam.

• Karl Anton Verloc : Is the little girl's father dead?

  The Professor : I don't know. He might be. I don't know. Nobody knows. My daughter would like to know, too. But there you are. It's her cross and she must bear it. We all have our cross to bear.
